5. MODES OF OPERATION 

 
 

The  genset  will  run  if  the  front  panel 

RUN

  button  is  pressed  and  will  stop  if  the 

STOP

  button  is 

pressed. If requested a starting password may be assigned. The password is set using the program parameter 

P_048 

and has a value between 0  and 999. If the password is set to 0, the unit will directly run the genset 

when the 

RUN

 button is pressed. If the password is set to a value other than 0, the unit will ask the password 

when the 

RUN

 button is pressed. In this case the upper and midrange display will show : “PAS”, “S=?”. Enter 

the password value to the lower display using (

) and (

) buttons then press 

MENU

 button. If the password 

is correct, the engine will run. 
 

If the Remote Start program parameter (

P_042

) is set to 1, the genset may also be run via a signal 

applied to the 

SPARE-2 (22) 

input. In this situation both the 

Remote Start Input

 and front panel 

RUN

 and 

STOP

 buttons are enabled. For example if a 

Remote Start

 signal arrives when the engine is stopped, then 

the engine will run. It may be stopped either by pressing the 

STOP

 button or by removing the 

Remote Start

 

signal.

 

 

The load transfer should be made externally by manual command. 

 

6. OTHER FEATURES 

 

6.1 Remote Start Operation 

 

 

The unit offers the possibility of 

REMOTE START

 mode of operation.  

 

If the program parameter 

P_042

 is set to 

1

 then the unit will enter to the Remote Start operation. In 

this mode, the engine will run and stop with the Remote Start signal.  

 

It is also necessary to set the program parameter 

P_119

 to 

3

 in order to prevent the alarms generated 

from this input. 

 

Even if an operation password is set, it will not be asked with a Remote Start signal. 

 

The Remote Start signal should be connected to the 

SPARE_2

 (

22

) input. It may be a NO or NC 

contact, switching to either battery positive or battery negative. These selections are made using programming 
menu. 

6.2 Sender type Selection 

 

 

The unit has the ability to adapt to any type of oil pressure and temperature senders. The 

commonly used standard sender characteristics are recorded in memory and selectable from a list. 
However non standard senders may also be used by entering their characteristics to the table. 
 

Oil Pressure Sender Type Selection: 

The oil pressure sender is selected using parameter P_019. The selectable sender types are: 

0:

 The sender characteristics are defined in table using parameters P_131 to P_142. 

1: 

VDO 0-7 bars (10-180 ohms) 

2:

 VDO 0-10 bars (280-20 ohms) 

3:

 DATCON 0-7 bars (240-33 ohms) 

4:

 DATCON 0-10 bars (240-33 ohms)  

5:

 DATCON 0-7 bars (0-90 ohms) 

6:

 DATCON 0-10 bars (0-90 ohms) 

7:

 DATCON 0-7 bars (75-10 ohms) 

 

Temperature Sender Selection: 

The temperature sender is selected using parameter P_020. The selectable sender types are: 

0:

 The sender characteristics are defined in table using parameters P_143 to P_154. 

1: 

VDO 

2:

 DATCON DAH type 

3:

 DATCON DAL type
